Everafter

Hello! How do you like the new look? ;)

Got a couple cards to share with you today; first up is the card I kept blabbing about yesterday...

Ha-ha! The bow has been conquered! I have mastered it to make it do my bidding! Mwahahaha!...anyways, moving on...;)

 I made this card for CPS (sketch #135), the Etsy Inspired challenge - first time participating, and I just could not help it when I saw Gypsy Roses's bag...

I knew at once what paper and what I wanted to do for this challenge...

I'm tellin' ya, this "Everafter" line is just fantabulous! I'll probably just hoard it for awhile, but I could not resist making it after seeing this post...she also had a handy link for making that bow. This is the first wedding card I've made...I don't really need one, but I just felt like it...oh, and by the way, the sentiment was printed up (using the "Mr. Wade" font from Kevin and Amanda) on my computer because I don't have any wedding related stamp sentiments.

Now for the other card I made before this one...not too happy with it, but as I was reading on another HA gals blog, what I may not like, another person may go ga-ga over. I don't know how or why, but if they like it, all is well with me. :)

This plain card, for Lexi's Creations

Just one last thing; I was featured over at 365 cards for this card...

thanks, gals!

Thanks for stopping by! ;)

Okay, so I was wrong - Sunday's post was not my last post till after Christmas. I can't tell you if this one is gonna be my last post until Christmas either becaaaause....Judy (the DT head for Simply Scrapping) just sent me a bunch of cardmaking goodies! I mean, a BUNCH! I took pictures of them, then sorted them out and put them away, but my camera lost the pics, so I don't have them to share with you. :( {sorry!} But, I will let you know there was at least $75 of scrappin' happiness in that box, my favorite being...the Nestabilities Label Eight! Yes yes YES! :D I've already made a card with it, but I can't show it to you yet. Hopefully/probably I'll get another one done tomorrow, and I'll be able to show you that one. :)

Now for the photos...

So, I am...was - low on cardstock, and I needed to make something for the sake of making something. I looked into my embellishment drawer, and there sat three K&Company valentine stickers from last year that I had not been able to use. I decided to give it a go, and thus, these two valentines were made....

For Cupcake Craft Challenges, Practical Scrappers, Creative Belli Blog (for the challenge, I'm referring to the bee's little trails as the flourishes - hope that's okay :)), and Truly Scrumptious...

{this one can be hung up}

 

{this image was just too cute!}

For 2S4Y, Kitchen Sink, Lexi's Creations, Whimsy Stamps, Quixotic Challenges, and All Sorts...

Yeah, it is a little early for valentines, but hey! why not? ;)

Got some birthday shopping done and bought myself some desperately needed adhesive.

All is calm around here and will be until 6:30 - supper time with all eleven of us. ;)

Thanks for stoppin' by & have a great day!

P.S. I was featured again over at Little Red Wagon for this card...:)
